Trip to QPR selected for TV coverage

Brentford’s West London derby against Queens Park Rangers has been selected for live Sky Sports coverage. As a result, the game at Loftus Road will now kick-off at 7.45pm on Monday 27 November.

After going more than half a century without a win in W12, Dean Smith’s side have tasted victory on their last two visits to Loftus Road. The Bees did the double over Rangers last season with Josh Clarke and Romaine Sawyers on target in October’s 2-0 away win before The R’s were dispatched 3-1 at Griffin Park in April.

The two sides also met on Rangers soil earlier this season in the Carabao Cup Second Round with The Bees running out comprehensive winners by four goals to one: John Egan, Neal Maupay, and Josh Clarke the men with the goals.

Bees fans will also be able to see the team live on Sky Sports earlier in November with our home game against Leeds United on Saturday 4 November, kick-off 5.30pm, also being broadcast around the world.

Further details and ticket information will be confirmed closer to the fixture.
